I really like PHP Storm (from Jetbrains). It's fast, feature-rich and under constant development. Couldn't recommend it more.

PHPStorm still isn't able to handle autocompletion for cascading class / folder structures, where there is more than one class/file with the same name (but in different folders) such as Kohana or FuelPHP:

That's one reason for me to keep using Netbeans, which I think is great for PHP.

Heh, I haven't paid for an IDE since Turbo C but I've yet to hear a bad word said against this one. If it doesn't suffer from the occasional memory gobbling antics of Netbeans then I might treat myself to an early birthday present.

You should! :) A couple of years ago I was skeptical, "Why would I pay that if I can get something good for free (Eclipse)?" Once I tried it for 2 months (now the trial only 30days), I couldnt help but buying the personal license. just happen that they had discount on easter.

License? Did that change in v7? I've been running various 6.x versions of NetBeans, and they were free.

They're talking about PHP Storm from Jetbrains, Netbeans is still free.
